We compute the order ${\ensuremath{\alpha}}_{s}^{2}$ corrections to the one particle inclusive electroproduction cross section of hadrons with nonvanishing transverse momentum. We perform the full calculation analytically, and obtain the expression of the factorized (finite) cross section at this order. We compare our results with H1 data on forward production of …
