Dear Riya Dey
I did not go through the comparison, but there is something strange about
your source term: looks like all photons are generated in the positive Z
direction, going away from the tally, instad of being isotropically
distributed. In the attached plot you can see the photon fluence in the
Z-X plane.
I would suggest to check the sampling of direction cosines
