Comparison of the experimentally determined PV curves for the polymorphs of NiSi measured to date. The EoSs of B31-, B20- and B2-NiSi are from Lord et al. (2012BB15; thin blue lines), while the EoS of Pmmn-NiSi is from this study (thick red line). The circles represent the PV data for B20-NiSi from experiments 1 (filled) and 2 (open) of this study. The dashed lines represent the ab initio EoSs from Vočadlo et al. (2012BB19) for B31-, B20- and B2-NiSi; the EoS for Pmmn-NiSi is from Wood et al. (2013BB20) and is the average of their low-pressure and high-pressure EoSs. A constant volume offset has been applied to all the ab initio EoSs so that their V0 values match the relevant measured or estimated experimental values.
