In the framework of the Q-phonon scheme and the interacting boson model a description of the 2{sub 1}{sup +} and 2{sub 2}{sup +} states is obtained. The wave vectors are written as an expansion in multiple Q-phonon excitations of the ground state. It is shown that the convergence of this expansion is fast and the main component already provides a good approximation of the wave vector. The accuracy of such a leading-order description exceeds 90{percent} of the wave vector. By taking into account two Q-phonon configurations the accuracy of the description of the 2{sub 1}{sup +} and 2{sub 2}{sup +} states is increased to 98{percent}. This is true for all collective nuclei with the exception of some rotors where the first excited K=0 band lies below or very close to the {gamma} band and, due to band mixing, the wave vector of the 2{sub 2}{sup +} state contains higher Q-phonon excitations. An application to some decay transitions is given. {copyright} {ital 1998} {ital The American Physical Society}
