    Description
    The presence of low-energy SUSY gives rise to new sources of CP violation and with it also to several questions. How severe are the CP constraints on (minimal and non-minimal) SUSY realizations? Could CP violation be a purely SUSY effect? To what extent CP violation in flavour-changing phenomena (for instance in the kaon system) probes the possible link between SUSY breaking and origin of the flavour? And, even more important, can we still hope to have some SUSY signal in CP violating phenomena? While trying to answer (some of) the above questions, the talk aims to show that if it is true that CP represents a serious concern for low-energy SUSY, at the same time it could provide some precious clues in the search for SUSY hints.
