Effect of hydrostatic pressure on the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant K1 of iron and nickel

Previous values of the pressure dependence of the magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant K₁ of iron and nickel were revised. These values of K₁^?1 ($\text{dK}{}_1\text{dp}$) depend on the magnetic field for iron, and do not for nickel. The value in iron extrapolated to infinitely strong magnetic field is ?7.8×10^?6 bar^?1 at room temperature and ?7.3×10^?6 bar^?1 at 77K, and in nickel at 15 KOe is ?7.5×10^?6 bar^?1 at room temperature and ?2.8×10^?6 bar^?1 at 77K.
