The ({sup 3}He, d) single-proton stripping reaction has been performed on targets of {sup 185,187}Re to investigate the structures of the 4{sub 3}{sup +} states in {sup 186,188}Os. The experiment employed 30 MeV {sup 3}He beams, and the reaction products were analyzed with a Q3D spectrograph. Absolute cross sections were determined at nine angles between 5 deg. and 50 deg. for states up to approximately 3 MeV in excitation energy. Large (5/2){sup +}[402]{sub {pi}+}(3/2){sup +}[402]{sub {pi}}two-quasiparticle components are deduced for the 4{sub 3}{sup +} levels of both isotopes. Their magnitudes are in agreement with calculations performed using the quasiparticle phonon model, which predicts a coexistence of a large hexadecapole with a smaller, but sizable, {gamma}-{gamma} component in the 4{sub 3}{sup +}.
