[yt-users] chemical species abundances discrepancy

Ah ok,
it seems that increasing a lot the number of bins the two approaches are
matching better... is there any reason for that?

A second question: how it works for the electrons? In enzo the electrons
are usually initialized considering a factor of mp/me, YT takes into
account this rescaling?

Thanks again
Stefano
