Abstract

The sign of

P_{3} = M_{02} M_{22^{'}} M_{02^{'}}

[

M_{rs} = - 〈 r ∥ M (E 2) ∥ s 〉

] has been determined by observing interference between one-step and two-step amplitudes for

α

-particle excitation of the second

2^{+}

states of

{}^{194}{Pt}

and

{}^{192}{Os}

. The sign of

P_{3}

predicted by Kumar and Baranger is found to be correct for

{}^{192}{Os}

but incorrect for

{}^{194}{Pt}

.
