Calculation the bulk modulus obtained by fitting to the Murnaghan equation. The energy is plotted relative to the minimum energy for each case, -363.24 eV/atom in Fireball and -405.155 eV/atom for Quantum espresso using the pseudopotentials Br.pbe-n-rrkjus_psl.1.0.0.UPF . a0 and B0 are the equilibrium lattice constant and bulk modulus obtained by fitting to the Murnaghan equation of state.

The cut off radio of the orbitals in Fireball are rs = 6.0 (bohr), rp = 6.0 (bohr), rd = 6.0 (bohr), and was generate like qs = 2.0, qp = 4.2, qd = 0.0, .
