Evidence from the paper

The experimentally determined equation of state parameters for phase Egg, i.e., (K0^exp), (V0^exp) and (K'0^exp) are, 157.0 (±4.0) GPa, 212.99 (±0.01) ų, and 6.5 (±0.4) respectively (Vanpeteghem et al., 2000).

Additional notes

comparison
DFT V0 for phase Egg (loP) is 1.3 % smaller and K0 is 4.7 % greater than these experimental results; experiments are at 300 K while simulations are static (0 K)
