Popis: In this paper we construct global strong dispersive solutions to the space inhomogeneous kinetic wave equation (KWE) which propagate $L^1_{xv}$ -- moments and conserve mass, momentum and energy. We prove that they scatter, and that the wave operators mapping the initial data to the scattering states are 1-1, onto and continuous in a suitable topology. Our proof is carried out entirely in physical space, and combines dispersive estimates for the free transport with new trilinear bounds for the gain and loss operators of the KWE on weighted Lebesgue spaces. A fundamental tool in obtaining these bounds is a novel collisional averaging estimate. Finally we show that the nonlinear evolution preserves positivity forward in time. For this, we use the Kaniel-Shinbrot iteration scheme \cite{KS}, properly initialized to ensure the successive approximations are dispersive.
