I am struggling to use get_specific_heat_params.p I have that .p file downloaded and have tried calling a variable from it many times but keep getting this error message "Invalid pfile. The file header is corrupt." I have tried restarting matlab as well as deleting and redownloading the get_specific_heat_params.p file. How can I fix this?

You cannot fix it yourself. You need to get the site to recreate the file.
However, it is possible that the p file was created for (ummmm, let me think... somewhere around R11? I do not mean R2011x, I mean a release that was roughly 1997. p files that old might not be detected anymore.
There is a separate issue that p files created before... ummm, 2009?? 2011?? are not compatible and need to be regenerated. However when that situation is encountered matlab will give you a specific message saying that it needs to be recreated.
