Evidence from the paper

we combined the two data sets (Table 1) and fixed the starting volume to the value of 76.10 (±0.07) Å3 reported by Lin et al. [2005] ... The Birch-Murnaghan EoS fit to the combined data set up to 40 GPa (high-spin phase) yields KT0 = 157.5 (±0.5) GPa and K'T0 = 3.92 (±0.1).
