We have deposited Mn on the ~110! surface of Ni and discover ordering into a c(232) superstructure for coverages of 0.35–0.5 monolayer Mn. Mn 2p photoemission spectra show distinct satellite structures which disappear for higher Mn coverage. Calculations using configuration-interaction theory including multiplet effects on a model cluster representing the local geometry of a surface alloy identify the features as correlation satellites and give model parameters as follows: charge-transfer energy D51 eV, Coulomb energy U53 eV, and transfer integral T51.2 eV. A detailed comparison to the case of c(232) Mn/Cu~100! leads to the conclusion that c(232) Mn/Ni~110! is a new magnetic surface alloy.
