We present a theoretical formalism for small-$q_T$ resummation of the cross sections for production of virtual photons, W, and Z bosons, with the subsequent decay of these bosons into lepton pairs, for arbitrary longitudinal polarizations of the proton beams.35 pages, 2 figures; minor modifications; bibliography references addedHigh Energy Physics - Phenomenologytext
