## TL;DR

This paper provides refined theoretical predictions for ZH production at the LHC by incorporating soft gluon effects through threshold resummation, enhancing the accuracy of cross section and invariant mass calculations.

## Contribution

It introduces threshold resummation techniques to improve predictions for ZH production, combining quark and gluon subprocesses at 13.6 TeV.

## Key findings

- Enhanced accuracy in ZH cross section predictions.
- Improved invariant mass distribution calculations.
- Quantitative impact of soft gluon effects.

## Abstract

We present precise theoretical results for the $ZH$ production cross section and invariant mass distribution at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) taking into account the effects of soft gluons. We improve both quark-initiated and gluon-initiated subprocesses through threshold resummation within the QCD framework and present combined results relevant for $13.6$ TeV LHC.
