Hidden toroidal multipoles have been dug out from individual scattering nanoparticles, and it is revealed that they could play subtle though essential roles for the fundamental phenomenon of electromagnetic transparency through interfering with other multipole components. The effect the authors have studied is believed to be universal, which might shed new light on many other fields including fluid dynamics, acoustics, particle physics and other areas of wave origin.
