The phase separation and vortex states in the two-component Bose-Einstein condensate consisting of |F=1, and internal spin states of ⁸⁷Rb atoms are considered in the framework of the Thomas-Fermi approximation. It is shown that in the nonrotating system, the atoms in the state |1,-1> form a shell about the atoms in the state . The critical angular velocity for each state is calculated. These velocities depend drastically on the relative concentrations of the components, the critical angular velocity of the outer component being less than the angular velocity of the inner one. It is shown that the atoms in the state can form a rotating ring about the resting core of the atoms in the state.
