[yt-dev] smoothed particle fields

[Matthew Turk]

Hi Britton,

Yup, this is possible. Take a look at how the nearest neighbor field is
implemented in particle_fields.py for an example.

Hi everyone,

Please forgive my ignorance on this question.  Is it possible to create a
smoothed field that has the same shape as a particle field?  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?

Thanks,
Britton
