The resonator is one of the main building blocks of a plethora of photonic and microwave devices from nanolasers to compact biosensors and magnetic resonance scanners. The symmetry of the resonators is tightly related to their mode structure and multipole content which determines the linear and non-linear response of the resonator. Here, we develop the algorithm for the classification of eigenmodes in resonators of the simplest shapes depending on their symmetry group. For each type of mode, we find its multipole content. As an illustrative example, we apply the developed formalism to the analysis of dielectric triangular prism and demonstrate the formation of high-Q resonances originated due to suppression of the scattering through the main multipole channel. The developed approach one to engineer, predict, and explain scattering phenomena and optical properties of resonators and meta-atmos basing only on their symmetry without the need for numerical simulations and it can be used for the design of new photonic and microwave devices.
