## Abstract

It is shown that the only Hausdorff topologies on $\mathbf{Z}_p$, the $p$-adic integers, which make it into a locally compact Abelian group are the $p$-adic and discrete topologies. The key ingredient in the proof is a structure theorem for certain LCA groups which may be of independent interest.
