Abstract: We prove the Bisognano-Wichmann property for asymptotically complete Haag-Kastler theories of massless particles. These particles should either be scalar or appear as a direct sum of two opposite integer helicities, thus, e.g., photons are covered. The argument relies on a modularity condition formulated recently by one of us (VM) and on the Buchholz' scattering theory of massless particles.
