Abstract: We introduce an abstract class of bosonic QFT Hamiltonians and study their spectral and scattering theories. These Hamiltonians are of the form $H=dG(omega)+V$ acting on the bosonic Fock space $G(ch)$, where $omega$ is a massive one-particle Hamiltonian acting on $ch$ and $V$ is a Wick polynomial $Wick(w)$ for a kernel $w$ satisfying some decay properties at infinity. We describe the essential spectrum of $H$, prove a Mourre estimate outside a set of thresholds and prove the existence of asymptotic fields. Our main result is the {em asymptotic completeness} of the scattering theory, which means that the CCR representations given by the asymptotic fields are of Fock type, with the asymptotic vacua equal to the bound states of $H$. As a consequence $H$ is unitarily equivalent to a collection of second quantized Hamiltonians.
