Abstract
In this work we determine the power spectrum of the gravitational potential of the primordial fluctuations for an inflationary model whose inflaton is a noncanonical scalar field of the tachyon-type. The respective background field equations for an inverse-square potential produce a power-law inflation, and it is explicitly shown that for such a potential the power spectrum tends to be scale independent for highly accelerated regimes in the inflationary expansion.
