Abstract: The isoscalar giant monopole resonances (ISGMR) in 90,92,94Zr and 92,96Mo have been studied with inelastic scattering of 240 MeV α particles at small angles including 0o. Strength corresponding to approximately 100% of the ISGMR (E0) energy-weighted sum rule was identified in each nucleus. In all cases the strength consisted of two components separated by 7-9 MeV. Except for the mass 92 nuclei, the upper component contained 14-22% of the E0 energy weighted sum rule (EWSR), however 38% and 65% of the E0 EWSR was located in the upper components in 92Zr and 92Mo respectively. The energies of the ISGMR for 92Zr and 92Mo are higher than for 90Zr, suggesting a significant nuclear structure contribution to the energy of the ISGMR in these nuclei. This has a large effect on the compression modulus of the nucleus.
