Unirational moduli spaces of some elliptic K3 surfaces

We show that the moduli space of $U\oplus \langle -2k \rangle$-polarized K3 surfaces is unirational for $k \le 50$ and $k \notin \{11,35,42,48\}$, and for other several values of $k$ up to $k=97$. Our proof is based on a systematic study of the projective models of elliptic K3 surfaces in $\mathbb{P}^n$ for $3\le n \le 5$ containing either the union of two rational curves or the union of a rational and an elliptic curve intersecting at one point.
