Diffusion controlled correlated recovery kinetics are compared for the Continuum and discrete lartice treatments. Specific results are given for the simple cubic, face-centered cubic, body-centered cubic and diamond lattices. It is concluded that samples with anisotropic damage distributions created by irradiation in different crystallographic directions will not exhibit substantial differences in their correlated recovery, but it is argued that for small capture volumes and for the treatment of the early recovery times, the discrete lattice treatment is required.
