Abstract
It is investigated in which sense the Bogoliubov-Haag treatment of the B.C.S.-model gives the correct solution in the limit of infinite volume. We find that in a certain subspace of the infinite tensor product space the field operators show the correct time behaviour in the sense of strong convergence.
