Abstract: We study the following coupled Schr"{o}dinger equations which have appeared as several models from mathematical physics: {displaymath} {cases}-Delta u_1 +la_1 u_1 = mu_1 u_1^3+�eta u_1 u_2^2, quad xin Omega, -Delta u_2 +la_2 u_2 =mu_2 u_2^3+�eta u_1^2 u_2, quad xin Om, u_1=u_2=0 ,,,hbox{on ,partialOm}.{cases}{displaymath} Here Om is a smooth bounded domain in RN(N=2,3) or Om=RN, la1,,la2, mu1,,mu2 are all positive constants and the coupling constant . We show that this system has infinitely many sign-changing solutions. We also obtain infinitely many semi-nodal solutions in the following sense: one component changes sign and the other one is positive. The crucial idea of our proof, which has never been used for this system before, is turning to study a new problem with two constraints. Finally, when Om is a bounded domain, we show that this system has a least energy sign-changing solution, both two components of which have exactly two nodal domains, and we also study the asymptotic behavior of solutions as and phase separation is expected.
