[en] The recovery of the electrical resistivity is reported for low-temperature electron-irradiated cobalt and dilute Co-Si and Co-C alloys. Samples have been irradiated to a range of doses extending from 0.25 x 10 to 24.5 x 10²² m^-2. A large stage I recovery (up to 78%) with a number of substages has been observed. One of these substages (I_D2 at 53 K) is influenced by both irradiation dose and the impurity level; this stage can be attributed to correlated recovery. No evidence for a dose-dependent substage I_E is observed. The influence of silicon and carbon on the recovery is discussed. (author)
