The construction and characterization of a focusing X-ray spherical analyzer based on α-quartz 4$$\overline{4}$$04 are presented. For this study, the performance of the analyzer was demonstrated by applying it to a high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy study of theKα1,2emission spectrum of Ni. An analytical representation based on physical grounds was assumed to model the shape of the X-ray emission lines. Satellite structures assigned to 3dspectator hole transitions were resolved and determined as well as their relative contribution to the emission spectrum. The present results on 1s-13d-1shake probabilities support a recently proposed calculation framework based on a multi-configuration atomic model.
