Why this differs from similar rows?

K_TR0 obtained by converting the measured K_SR to K_TR via thermoelastic relations and fitting a BM3 to the resulting K_T-V data, with absolute pressure from simultaneous Brillouin scattering and XRD.

Evidence from the paper

we converted our experimentally determined K_SR into K_TR and calculated K_TR0 and K'_TR0 by fitting a third-order Birch-Munraghan EOS to our K_T-V data. ... The absolute pressure was then determined using experimentally measured volumes, and our K_TR0 = 254.5(4) GPa and K'_TR0 = 3.73(2).
