Gabor, D., Ash, E. A. and Dracott, D., "Langmuir's Paradox", Nature 176, 916-919, 12 Nov 1955. DOI 10.1038/176916a0 [web] https://www.nature.com/articles/176916a0 Paywalled; only the metadata page was seen (101 citations). A privacy banner was present and left untouched. Per Baalrud 2009, this paper named the paradox and proposed sheath oscillations as the scattering mechanism. Also: Martin and Emeléus, "The Langmuir Paradox in Discharge Plasmas", Nature 177, 943 (1956) (not opened). Bearing: claim 5. These are the follow-up proposals for the mechanism; Gabor's is oscillations of a different kind (sheath, not bulk plasma-electron). Result: partial. Recheck: yes.
