contents We study the relativistic and non-relativistic Vlasov equation driven by short-range interaction potentials and identify the large time dynamics of solutions. In particular, we construct global-in-time solutions launched from small initial data and prove that they scatter along the forward free flow to well-behaved limits as $t \to \infty$. Moreover, we prove the existence of wave operators for such a regime and, upon constructing the aforementioned time asymptotic limits, use the wave operator formulation to prove for the first time that the relativistic scattering states converge to their non-relativistic counterparts as $c \to \infty$.
