Abstract: A rotating, two-component Bose-Einstein condensate is shown to exhibit vortices of multiple quantization, which are possible due to the interatomic interactions between the two species. Also, persistent currents are absent in this system. Finally, the order parameter has a very simple structure for a range of angular momenta.<br />Comment: 4 pages, RevTex, 4 figures
