In this paper, we studied the effect of clusterization algorithms (fragment formation techniques) on the phenomenon of multifragmentation for mass asymmetric central reactions using quantum molecular dynamics model. We simulated the reactions for η(mass asymmetry parameter) = 0-0.74 at E = 20-200 MeV/nucleon and using MSTB(2.1) and SACA(2.1) (minimum spanning tree and simulated annealing clusterization algorithms with microscopic binding energy cut, respectively). Our results clearly indicates that both SACA(2.1) and MSTB(2.1) methods explain the experimental results nicely, therefore, like for symmetric reactions one can also use the most simplified MSTB(2.1) algorithm for mass asymmetric reactions to get the most stable and bound fragments as compared to most complicated SACA versions.
