It is explained that any scalar field in 𝑓(𝑅, 𝑇 ) gravity model could present a new subclass of the k-essence model for inflation. While the case of the quintessence has been studied, there is an empty gap required to be filled by investigating more types of field models. Here, we are aiming to partially fill the gap and concentrate on the tachyon field. In this study, we explore the phenomenon of tachyon inflation in the context of the alternative gravity theory 𝑓(𝑅, 𝑇 ) = 𝑅 + 𝜂𝑇 . By applying slow-roll approximations, we examine the model in detail for three different potentials: power-law, generalized T-mode, and inverse hyperbolic cosh. Using observational data and Python coding, we determine a range of values for the model’s free parameters that allow it to fit the data perfectly. In essence, this study provides a comprehensive analysis of tachyon inflation in the 𝑅 + 𝜂𝑇 gravity theory, offering new insights into this alternative framework and its potential to explain tachyon inflation.
