The bottom magnetic fields of neutron stars (NSs) in LMXBs are found to be proportionally related to their accretion rate, i.e. Z (Atoll) source with Eddington (less Eddington) rate is associated with a stronger value of about B ~109 G (B ~108 G). We discuss the relation between the jet formation of NS and its bottom magnetic field strength, and pointed out that the accretion powered millisecond pulsar will not exclude the jet production, furthermore the appearance of kHz QPOs may be also coexistence with the jets. The observer's viewing angle to the NS rotating axis may be a significant factor for observing the jet, pulsar or kHz QPO.
