abstract: "<p>This code creates simulations of the impact of Na gamma rays and Muons onto a scintillator crystal based on the MTD-BTL (Minimum Ionizing Particle Detector - Barrel TIming Layer, https://cds.cern.ch/record/2667167/files/CMS-TDR-020.pdf) detector to be installed at the CMS (Compact Muon solenoid) at CERN to estimate its overall light collection depending on the crystal's shape and reflective surfaces. The code works with a NSGAII genetic algorithm to study the shape optimization of the crystals. To use the Gmsh integration use the branch from the git repository: https://github.com/grealesguti/SO-CRYSTAL/tree/g/f/G4asfunction/src/TierII-gmsh</p>"
