Hint of new particle at CERN's Large Hadron Collider?

Particle theorist Ben Allanach gives his reaction to yesterday's seminar, where ATLAS and CMS reported on what we have (and have not yet) learned from a year of the highest-energy particle collisions ever achieved

I've just finished watching the ATLAS and CMS experiments give their end of year seminars, presenting some analyses of data taken this year at the highest collision energy, 13 TeV. Being a "beyond the Standard Model" theorist, I was most interested in the searches for new particles.
