Evidence from the paper

The compression data were fit to a three-parameter (V0, K0T, K'), error-weighted third-order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state [Birch, 1978] using the EoSFIT program [Angel, 2000]. The EoS results are for Fe27 (Mg0.725Fe0.268□0.007O); V0 = 76.336(2) Å3, K0T = 158.4(4) GPa, and K' = 5.49(11).
