The combined use of either a non-penetrating pressurizing medium, argon, or a penetrating one, helium, allows to separate density from stress effects on the Raman frequencies. In the framework of a simple central force model, the results emphasize the distinct role played by the shrinkage of the inter-tetrahedral angle Si-O-Si and the force-constant stiffening during the compression. The polarization analysis further reveals the existence of an additional isotropic component in the high frequency wing of the Boson peak. The pressure dependence of the genuine Boson peak frequency is found to be much weaker than previously reported and even goes through a minimum around 2 GPa in a remarkable coincidence with the anomalous compressibility maximum of silica. %G English %L hal-01941003 %U https://hal.science/hal-01941003 %~ UNIV-PARIS7 %~ UPMC %~ CNRS %~ IMPMC %~ ALLINSP %~ L2C %~ USPC %~ UPMC_POLE_2 %~ MIPS %~ UNIV-MONTPELLIER %~ SORBONNE-UNIVERSITE %~ SU-SCIENCES %~ UNIV-PARIS %~ ALLIANCE-SU %~ UM-2015-2021
