53. We assumed that in both phases α≫1 and set the coupling parameter κ defined in Ref. 13 at κ=3, as was done there. That coupling parameter is not exactly identical to the one defined in Eq. (10), but was also expected to have value of order unity. The volume fractions in the coexisting phases were estimated from the free energy density curves using the common tangent construction.
