This paper introduces the exact, analytic integration of all final state variables for the process of nonlinear Compton scattering in an intense plane wave laser pulse, improving upon a previously slow and challenging numerical approach. Computationally simple and insightful formulae are derived for the total scattering probability and mean energy-momentum of the emitted radiation. The general form of the effective mass appears explicitely. We consider several limiting cases, and present a quantum correction to Larmor's formula. Numerical results are plotted and analysed in detail.
