MEGARA cryostat is part of an optical Integral-Field Unit (IFU) and Multi-Object Spectrograph (MOS) designed to the 10.4m GTC (Gran Telescopio de Canarias) telescope in La Palma, Spain. MEGARA (Multi-Espectrógrafo en GTC de Alta Resolución para Astronomía) will provide to the scientific community the possibilities of covering 12.5” x 11.3” on the sky (in the sparse mode), and observing 100 objects in a 3.5’ x 3.5’ field of view (in the disperse mode), with an intermediate-to-high spectral resolution in the range of R ~ 6000, 11000 and 19000. This thesis project is focused on the Assembling, Integration and Verification (AIV) phase of the cryogenic system, which was designed by the Astronomical Instrumentation Group for Millimeter Wavelengths at the Instituto Nacional de Astrofísica, Óptica y Electrónica (INAOE), with other MEGARA components at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM). The main activities of this project included the complete integration of the cryogenic system, its pressure and temperature characterization, its integration with other MEGARA subsystems, the continuous monitoring of the cryostat before the Laboratory Acceptance phase, and the installation and alignment of the CCD within the cryostat, which operates at a temperature of 153K. The activities were developed at INAOE and UCM.
