  We propose that sub-Keplerian accretion belts around stars might launch jets.
The sub-Keplerian inflow does not form a rotationally supported accretion disk,
but it rather reaches the accreting object from a wide solid angle. The basic
ingredients of the flow are a turbulent region where the accretion belt
interacts with the accreting object via a shear layer, and two avoidance
regions on the poles where the accretion rate is very low. A dynamo that is
developed in the shear layer amplifies magnetic fields to high values. It is
likely that the amplified magnetic fields form polar outflows from the
avoidance regions. Our speculative belt-launched jets model has implications to
a rich variety of astrophysical objects, from the removal of common envelopes
to the explosion of core collapse supernovae by jittering jets.
