Coupled nonlinear Schrodinger systems describe some physical phenomena such as the propagation in birefringent optical fibers, Kerr-like photorefractive media in optics and Bose-Einstein condensates. In this paper, we study the existence of concentrating solutions of a singularly perturbed coupled nonlinear Schrodinger system, in presence of potentials. We show how the location of the concentration points depends strictly on the potentials.
