Calculation the bulk modulus obtained by fitting to the Murnaghan equation. The energy is plotted relative to the minimum energy for each case, -1700.15 eV/atom in Fireball and -1722.22 eV/atom for Quantum espresso using the pseudopotentials Zn.pbe-van.UPF . a0 and B0 are the equilibrium lattice constant and bulk modulus obtained by fitting to the Murnaghan equation of state.
