  We compare the results obtained in the framework of the quasiparticle random
phase approximation (QRPA) on top of a Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) with the
most recent experiments on giant monopole resonances in Pb, Sn, Zr, Sm, Mo and
Cd. Our calculations are fully self consistent and the density dependence of
pairing interactions is, for the first time in this framework, properly taken
into account. In the particle-hole (ph) channel we employ different Skyrme
functionals (SLy5, SkM* and Skxs20) while in the particle-particle (pp) channel
we make use of density dependent contact interactions. We introduce in the pp
channel the recently proposed contact interactions which take into account the
neutron-proton asymmetry. We find that no single parametrization is able to
reproduce with sufficient accuracy all the nuclei. Since about two-thirds of
the nuclei under investigation are better explained with a soft
parametrization, this tends to suggest that the currently accepted picture for
the incompressibility might require modifications.
