Evidence from the paper
TABLE 1 Values of input parameters for MgO, hcp iron, Earth lower mantle and Earth outer core taken from References [1, 9, 11, 27]: Earth Lower Mantle K0 (GPa) = 206.09, K0' = 4.2, K'inf = 2.4, gamma0 = 1.4545, gamma_inf = 1.0387. 'The results are compared with the corresponding values computed from the Stacey RKP-EOS' (Eq. 25).
