The coexistence pressure of two phases is a well-defined point at fixed temperature. In experiment, however, due to nonhydrostatic stresses and a stress-dependent potential energy barrier, different measurements yield different ranges of pressure with a hysteresis. Accounting for these effects, we propose an inequality for comparison of the theoretical value to a plurality of measured intervals. We revisit decades of pressure experiments on the \$\text{bcc}\ensuremath{\leftrightarrow}\text{hcp…

The solid-state nudged elastic band method is extended to handle a non-conserved order parameter, in particular, magnetization, that couples to volume and leads to many observed effects in magnetic systems, and finds a bcc-hcp equilibrium coexistence pressure of 8.4 GPa.

It is concluded that γ′-Fe4N, which is unstable with respect to other phases at 0 K (at any pressure), has to be entropically stabilised in order to occur as stable phase in the Fe–N system.
