Description

The results on recent studies of nuclear dynamics at extremely large internal
momenta in the deuteron are presented. We demonstrate that the paradigm shift
in the description of the deuteron consisting of proton and neutron to the description of
the deuteron as a pseudo-vector composite system in which proton and neutron is
observed in high energy electro-disintegration processes results in the emergence of
a new structure. We demonstrate that this new structure can exist only if it emerged from
pre-existing non-nucleonic component in the deuteron. The study of the dynamics of the
predicted new structure is presented focusing on the question if it allows to understand
the anomaly observed in the recent experiment at Jefferson Lab that probed deuteron
structure at internal momenta above 800 MeV/c.
