| contents | 3C403 is a well-known FRII radio galaxy with jets extending up to kiloparsec scales. We report its identification as the second most significant candidate among more than 150 sources examined using the 15-year neutrino dataset from the ANTARES Collaboration, making it one of the most promising radio-galaxy candidates for high-energy neutrino emission. Motivated by previous associations between blazars and neutrino events, we investigated the jet properties of 3C403 and their possible role in neutrino production. Multi-scale radio observations, from parsec to kiloparsec scales, reveal a stable, two-sided jet lying close to the plane of the sky, with no evidence of strong Doppler boosting, while X-ray data indicate a dominant, heavily absorbed accretion-related component. We also examined the recently proposed correlation between neutrino and hard X-ray fluxes - originally identified in blazars and Seyfert galaxies - and find that 3C403 occupies an intermediate location in the $L_ν$--$L_{\rm hX}$ plane between jet-dominated and corona-dominated systems. However, the current upper limit on its neutrino flux prevents a firm assessment of whether it follows the proposed relation. With radiatively efficient accretion ($λ_{\rm Edd}\sim10^{-2}$), strong hard X-ray emission, and a powerful but misaligned jet, 3C403 provides a physically motivated laboratory for exploring the interplay between coronal activity and jet environments in multimessenger scenarios of neutrino production in active galaxies. |
