Very similar to a pioneering case: > A notable early use of a blind analysis in physics was in a measurement of the e/m of the electron, by Dunnington. In this measurement, the e/m was proportional to the angle between the electron source and the detector. Dunnington asked his machinist to arbitrarily choose an angle around 340°. Only when the analysis was complete, and Dunnington was ready to publish a result, did he accurately measurethe hidden angle.
