[yt-dev] smoothed particle fields

[John ZuHone]

I'm interested in this too--also want to know if we can do it for particles from grid code data like FLASH.

Specifically, I would like to create a density field that is as close to how SPH codes calculate densities for each particle.  I believe this would involve evaluating smoothing kernels at particle positions instead of octree cell centers as we do with deposited fields.  If this is not possible, does anyone have any thoughts on how this might be implemented?
