Dissociative adsorption of hyperthermal O$$_{2}$$ molecules on Cu$$_{3}$$Au(100) was investigated by X-ray photoemission spectroscopy in conjunction with a synchrotron light source. Comparing the O-uptake curve on Cu$$_{3}$$Au with that on Cu, it was found that the dissociative adsorption of O$$_{2}$$ is more activated (less reactive) due to Au alloying. The low-energy electron-diffraction (LEED) pattern of c(2$$times$$2) for the clean surface turned into the (1$$times$$1) LEED pattern during the oxidation by hyperthermal O$$_{2}$$ molecular beam, suggesting that the O adsorption induces the Cu-atom segregation on the surface.
