Evidence from the paper

The data are fitted (solid dark red line) with a Birch-Murnaghan equation of state, giving bulk modulus of K300 = 190(4) GPa and unit cell volume at ambient conditions V0 = 178.98(6) Å (K' = 4). ... it has a bulk modulus of K300 = 190(4) GPa [K' = 4, V0 = 178.98(6) Å3 per unit cell; Fig. 3 and table S3]

Additional notes

high pressure values this study
at 80 GPa: rho_80 = 5.99(1) g/cm3 and K_80,300 = 480(15) GPa
vacancies
significant amount of vacancies (~12%) at the A-site via substitution 3Fe2+ -> 2Fe3+ + vacancy; all iron located in A-site
pressure medium
Ne (quasi-hydrostatic), Ne EOS used as pressure standard
data range
structure maintained on compression up to ~125 GPa and decompression down to at least 13 GPa
