One shows that for two C^*-algebras A1 and A2 any continuous function on Prim(A1)× Prim(A2) can be continuously extended to Prim(A1⊗ A2) provided it takes its values in a T1 topological space. This generalizes a 1977 result of L.G. Brown. A new proof is given for a result of R.J. Archbold about the space of minimal primal ideals of A1⊗ A2. To obtain these two results one makes use of the topological properties of the space of prime ideals of the minimal tensor product.
