Evidence from the paper

"Ab initio B3LYP values of K_T, as obtained by a full phonon dispersion calculation of P-V-T relations fitted with a BM3-EOS ... in excellent agreement with the experimental results ... in the range T = 300–1800 K at P = 1 bar"; Table 1: T = 300 K, K_T (B3LYP) = 157.69 GPa; Table 2: T = 300 K, K'_T (B3LYP) = 4.04.
