Description

We report on a conceptual design for a noble-liquid-based EM endcap
calorimeter, where the absorber plates and readout electrodes are
arranged in a turbine-like geometry. This design allows for
frequent shower sampling and highly granular readout, without
introducing cracks in phi. Furthermore, it can be constructed from multiple
copies of a small number of absorber and readout board designs. The implementation
of this geometry in the ALLEGRO detector simulation and initial simulation results will
be presented.
