When the line
self["particle_velocity_x"]
is called in HaloFinding.py, does it automatically give the number in CGS
units already or is it in code units?  It's used in calculating the rms
velocity for each of the dark matter haloes, but it's subtracting centers
and multiplying other values in code units I believe, just want to make
sure the calculations are done in the same units.
