Dark100 is a planned array of six telescopes, using the Panoramic Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence (PANOSETI) telescope system. It will operate as an imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescope array, with a telescope design and array layout optimized for accessing gamma rays with tens of TeV to PeV energies. The science goals of Dark100 include the search for ultra-heavy dark matter, observations of Galactic Pevatrons, and the search for ultra-fast optical transients. Rejection of background cosmic rays is key to the sensitivity of the array. We present a first study of gamma/hadron separation based on simulated gamma rays and protons, focusing on the impact of the hadronic background models used in CORSIKA.
