We compute the massless q + e -> q + e t-channel differential cross-section at next-to-leading order in the MS-bar renormalisation scheme. We only consider interactions pertaining to the incoming and outgoing quark. In particular, we first explain how the LSZ formula is modified in MS-bar. We then demonstrate the delicate cancellation of IR-divergences present in the vertex correction, soft gluon emission and hard collinear gluon emission. Such a study is relevant for studying energy loss and running coupling effects in the quark-gluon-plasma.
