The CeNiAl₄ compound crystallizes in an orthorhombic YNiAl₄-type structure with a Cmcm space group. The earlier susceptibility data and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) suggested a localized character of the 4f states in CeNiAl₄ with a valence state close to a Ce⁺³ ion. In this work we present a combined theoretical and experimental study of the electronic structure for the Kondo dense system CeNiAl₄ based on the XPS data and ab initio calculations. Using the band structure calculations the theoretical XPS valence band spectra are evaluated. Below the Fermi energy the total density of states contains mainly 3d states of Ni hybridized with Ce 4f states.
