The precession of the angular distribution of gamma rays deexciting the 2[sub 1][sup +] states of [sup 194,196,198]Pt and [sup 148]Nd nuclei have been measured by the transient field method. Average values of the transient field acting at Pt and Nd ions recoiling through gadolinium have been obtained from these data, and are shown to validate the Rutgers parametrization in the recoil velocity range 1.9[le]([ital v]/[ital v][sub 0])[lt]=4.6. The [ital g](2[sub 1][sup +]) factors of [sup 196,198]Pt relative to [ital g]([sup 194]Pt)=0.302(16) have also been deduced: [ital g]([sup 196]Pt)=0.302(24) and [ital g]([sup 198]Pt)=0.350(30), in good agreement with other transient field measurements.
