Description

We perform the threshold resummation for massive vector boson pair production processes ($ZZ$ and $W^{+}W^{-}$) at the Next to Next to Leading Log accuracy matched with Next to Next to Leading Order fixed order results. We perform the Resummation in the Mellin space, and present our results for the invariant mass distribution to NNLO+NNLL accuracy in QCD for the current LHC energies. We find that in the high invariant mass region, the NNLL contribution enhances the cross
section by an additional few percent.
We find that in the high invariant mass region ($Q=1 TeV$), the conventional scale uncertainties in the fixed-order results get reduced substantially after including the resummation contributions.
