Evidence from the paper

The third-order Birch-Murnaghan EoS parameters, V0 = 18.69 A3, K_T = 160(2) GPa, and K_T' = 4.15, determined under hydrostatic conditions (Fei 1999) are used to represent the principal isotherm, that is, P(V,300).

Additional notes

usage
Used to represent the 300 K principal isotherm P(V,300) in constructing the thermal EoS by adding ΔP_TH(V0,T) from Isaak et al. (1989)
note
This study itself is first-principles DFPT thermal-pressure work; the static EOS parameters are cited from Fei (1999)
