21. A > 1 eV. Due to the disordered state during the measurements, these results seem rather high compared with Gomer's equilibrium results [16,19], and are possibly due to impurities [8] or reconstruction [6].
22. We should mention that at 0 ≈ 0.68, a similar ordering experiment has been carried out by Tringides [26]. In this measurement, the quality of the data seems to be better than in previous experiments at 0 ≈ 0.5 [7,9]. However, since the final equilibrium phase at the end of the ordering process is a coexistence phase of p(2 × 1) and p(2 × 2), and the equilibrium barrier in this phase is unknown, we have avoided comparison with this data.
