[Question #698312]: explain returns of yade.utils.psd

Dear all,
I have a question in returns of yade.utils.psd in simulating clumps spherical particles.
I have modeled 3000 particles, I mean I have 3000 clumps. 
Particle size distribution for them is 8 cm to 100 cm.
Around of particles in yade is facet.

When I want psd with yade.utils.psd(mass=True), it gives me these:

(array([0.0026, 0.055 , 0.1074, 0.1598, 0.2122, 0.2646]),
 array([0.        , 0.06952433, 0.30856434, 0.48348666, 0.88043175,
        1.        ]),
 array([    0.        ,  1259.17422258,  5588.49372188,  8756.56001507,
        15945.74175232, 18111.27531567]))

I read [1] , but actually I could not understand what is these arrays! if first array is sizes of my particles so why it is until 26 cm?

Many thanks for your help.
Best regards,
