Associated production of a top quark pair with a heavy electroweak gauge boson at NLO+NNLL accuracy

Abstract We perform threshold resummation of soft gluon corrections to the total cross sections and the invariant mass distributions for production of a top-antitop quark pair associated with a heavy electroweak boson $$V = W^+$$ V=W+ , $$W^-$$ W- or Z in pp collisions at the Large Hadron Collider....
