We study a Schrödinger operator with magnetic field, \(H_ h=(i\nabla- \vec A(x))^ 2+V(x)\). The magnetic potential \(\vec A(x)\) is regular and the electric one \(V(x)\) has singularities of Coulomb type, \(V(x)=c_ 0(x)+\sum^ N_{j=1}(c_ j(x)/| x-x_ j|)\), the real functions \(c_ j(x)\) are regular. Assumptions are made to guarantee the essential self-adjointness and the semi-boundedness of \(H_ h\). For \(j\) such that \(c_ j(x_ j)<0\), a B.K.W. method is performed to approximate, in the semi-classical sense, the eigenvalue \(\lambda(j,h)\) of \(H_ h\), and an associated eigenfunction witch is concentrated near the well \(\{x_ j\}\); the eigenvalue is one satisfying \(| h^ 2\lambda(j,h)-e(j)|=O(h)\), where \(e(j)\) is the ground state of \(- \Delta+{c_ j(x_ j)\over| x|}\). As an application, a sharp asymptotic formula is given, for the splitting in the double well problem, and for the width of the first band in the periodic problem.
