Abstract: Generalizing Dollard's strategy, we investigate the structure of the scattering theory associated to any large time reference dynamics $U_D(t)$ allowing for the existence of M{o}ller operators. We show that (for each scattering channel) $U_D(t)$ uniquely identifies, for $topminfty$, {em asymptotic dynamics} $U_{p}m(t)$; they are unitary {em groups} acting on the scattering spaces, satisfy the M{o}ller interpolation formulas and are interpolated by the $S$-matrix. In view of the application to field theory models, we extend the result to the adiabatic procedure. In the Heisenberg picture, asymptotic variables are obtained as LSZ-like limits of Heisenberg variables; their time evolution is induced by $U_{p}m(t)$, which replace the usual free asymptotic dynamics. On the asymptotic states, (for each channel) the Hamiltonian can by written in terms of the asymptotic variables as $H=H_{p}m(q_{out/in},p_{out/in})$, $H_{p}m(q,p)$ the generator of the asymptotic dynamics. As an application, we obtain the asymptotic fields $ps{i}_{out/in}$ in repulsive Coulomb scattering by an LSZ modified formula; in this case, $U_{p}m(t)=U_0(t)$, so that $ps{i}_{out/in}$ are emph{free} canonical fields and $H=H_0(ps{i}_{out/in})$.
