First order radiative corrections to pp → e⁺e⁻ have been calculated in the proton point-like approximation, including both virtual and real corrections, and interference effects. Soft and hard photon emission regimes are covered in the calculation. In the soft photon regime, divergences from singular virtual diagrams are cancelled in pairs with the corresponding ones from real diagrams. On the other hand, the regularisation of infrared divergences of the bremsstrahlung cross section is achieved by the use of a small photon mass as a parameter, which makes the calculation suitable in both the soft and hard photon regime. The calculated cross section is the basis of an event generator to be used in the framework of the future PANDA experiment, where the expected precision in the measurement of the timelike electromagnetic form factors of the proton will demand a next-to-leading order differential cross section.
