E double sharp is simply the note E double sharp. On the piano keyboard it is the first black note in the grouping of three black notes (just to the left of the note "G"). In 12 tone equal temperament it has the same pitch as F# and Gb.
It is a very infrequently used note in diatonic music; mostly just in A# minor (and usually as a chromatic alteration of an already altered chord), but it sometimes shows up in big clusters of notes, as well. Mostly, it is a theoretical note (which IS used when you got into the realm of temporary "imaginary keys", like G# and A# Major).

X is a double sharp, X G (G double sharp) for example would be the enharmonic equivalent of A. If the "ball" of the note on the music is replaced by an x, then that would mean to "ghost the note."

Its a kind of note in music. Its also in the G-scale of g sharp it is on the grand staff on piano.
What direction and how many half steps does a double sharp move a note?
A double sharp raises a natural note up a tone - so lets take for example F double sharp. F double sharp is one whole tone higher than F which is enharmonically equivalent to G natural.
