When supersymmetry is spontaneously broken, the theory contains a goldstone fermion, called goldstino, which couples to the other particles in a characteristic way. If the supersymmetry breaking scale is sufficiently close to the electroweak scale, such couplings can be sizeable. This can lead to interesting signals both in low energy phenomena (either flavour conserving or flavour violating) and at high energy colliders.
