Fe0.943O

third-order Birch-Murnaghan · Original · 1990

Why this differs from similar rows?

Reports isothermal pressure derivative (dKS/dP)_T=4.90 from ultrasonic Cij(P) data, used with Birch-Murnaghan extrapolation; sibling row reports isentropic derivative instead.

Evidence from the paper

"this choice of parameters (a1 = K0S = 154.9 GPa, a2 = (dKS/dP)T = 4.90, a3 = K0'S/2 = -0.018 GPa-1) yields a description of K(P)..." and "extrapolated to much higher pressures via third-order Eulerian isotherms and isentropes based on K0S = 154.9 GPa and (dKs/dP)T = 4.90."
