Bonsall and Tomiuk have shown, in (3), the connection between the local compactness of a monothetic semi-algebra and the spectral properties of a generating element. This theme was developed, in (4), to give a complete characterisation of prime, strict locally compact monothetic semi-algebras in terms of the spectrum of a generator (Theorem A). Here we extend this result to the case of a semi-simple locally compact monothetic semi-algebra (Theorem B).
