“…The uncertainty contributions due to the isothermal EOS parameters V 0 , K T 0 , and for hcp‐Fe, hcp‐Fe 0.91 Ni 0.09 , and hcp‐Fe 0.8 Ni 0.1 Si 0.1 are found to be of similar magnitude to the uncertainty due to γ 0 and q , which highlights the importance of accurately constraining the parameters V 0 , K T 0 , and to obtain reliable thermal equations of state. One of the greatest sources of uncertainty is due to the electronic and anharmonic contributions to the thermal pressure, which are not well constrained (e.g., Alfè et al, ; Fei et al, ; Martorell, Vočadlo, et al, ; Martorell, Brodholt, et al, , Martorell et al, ; Moustafa et al, ). To account for this, we enlarge our error bars on density, adiabatic bulk modulus, and bulk sound speed.…”
