We report measurements of the nonresonant x-ray emission spectroscopy (XES) from Ni metal in an energy range spanning the Kβ diagram line, valence-to-core emission, and double-ionization (DI) satellites that appear beyond the single-particle Fermi level. We make special use of a laboratory-based x-ray spectrometer capable of both x-ray emission and x-ray absorption measurements to accurately align the XES and x-ray absorption spectra to a common energy scale. The careful alignment of energy scales is requisite for correction of the strong sample absorption of DI fluorescence above the Ni K-edge energy. The successful correction of absorption effects allows a determination of the branching ratios for the [1s3d], [1s3p] , [1s2p] and [1s2s] satellites with respect to their corresponding diagram lines. We compare our results with other work, finding good agreement with prior experiments and with theoretical calculations in the multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock framework.
