The NLO-QCD correction to single hadron production in deep inelastic scattering is calculated. We require the final state meson to carry a non-vanishing transversal momentum, thus being sensitive to perturbative QCD effects. Factorization…

Associated with the use of conventional integrated parton densities are kinematic approximations on parton momenta which result in unphysical differential distributions for final-state particles. We argue that it is important to reformulate…
