A value of -550 \pm 100 MeV has been obtained for the asymmetry term, $K_τ$, in the nuclear incompressibility.To appear in the Proceedings of the International Nuclear Physics Conference (INPC2007), Tokyo, Japan, June 3-8, 2007Nuclear ExperimentThe Giant Monopole Resonance in the $^{112-124}$Sn Isotopes and the Symmetry Energy Term in Nuclear Incompressibilitytext
