Heat treatment procedures have been identified as cru-cial for the performance of niobium SRF cavities, which are the key technology of modern accelerators. The so called "mid-T heat treatments", invert the dependence of losses on the applied accelerating field (anti-Q slope) and significantly reduce the absolute value of losses. The mechanism behind these improvements is still under investigation, and further research is needed to fully understand the principle processes involved. Anomalies in the frequency shift near the transition temperature (Tc), known as "dip" can provide insight into fundamental material properties and allow us to study the relation-ship of frequency response with surface treatments. Therefore, we have measured the frequency versus temperature of multiple mid-T heat treated cavities with different recipes and studied the correlation of SRF properties with frequency shift features. The maximum quality factor correlates with two such shift features, namely the dip magnitude per temperature width and the total frequency shift.

A new vacuum furnace has been designed and purchased by the University of Hamburg and is operating in an ISO5 cleanroom. This furnace can anneal single-cell TESLA cavities at temperatures up to 1000°C and with a pressure of less than 10-7mbar or in a nitrogen atmosphere of up to 10-2mbar. We will lay out the underlying design ideas, based on the gained experience from our previous annealing research, and present the commissioning of the furnace itself. Additionally, we will show for the first time the results of sample and cavity tests after annealing in the furnace. This will be accompanied by an overview of the intended R&D process and scientific questions to be addressed.
