Evidence from the paper

The experimentally determined equation of state parameters for phase egg, i.e., (K0^exp), (V0^exp), and (K0'^exp) are 157.0 (±4.0) GPa, 212.99 (±0.01) ų, and 6.5 (±0.4), respectively (Vanpeteghem et al. 2003). ... This is expected because the experiments are at 300 K and the first-principles simulations are at static conditions (0 K).
