contents This paper is dedicated to the spectral analysis of the semiclassical purely magnetic Laplacian on the plane in the situation where the magnetic field $B$ vanishes nondegenerately on an open smooth curve $Γ$. We prove the existence of a discrete spectrum for energy windows of the scale $h^{4/3}$ and give complete asymptotics in the semiclassical paramater $h$ for eigenvalues in such windows. Our strategy relies on the microlocalization of the corresponding eigenfunctions close to the zero locus $Γ$ and on the implementation of a Born-Oppenheimer strategy through the use of operator-valued pseudodifferential calculus and superadiatic projectors. This allows us to reduce our spectral analysis to that of effective semiclassical pseudodifferential operators in dimension 1 and apply the well-known semiclassical techniques à la Helffer-Sjöstrand.
