Abstract
The recent Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) observations are pointing towards a plateau feature in the flat potential of the inflation field to drive the initial acceleration of the Universe. In this regard, Dimopoulos and Owen introduced a very promising model dubbed as Power Law Plateau inflation (PLP) (Dimopoulos and Owen, 2016) which has this feature in it. But to make this model consistent with observation in the standard cold inflationary scenario, one needs to introduce an epoch of thermal inflation. In this paper, we have shown realizing this model in the non-canonical domain, could actually make the model consistent with the observation without introducing any late-stage thermal inflation. We also report the constraints from the Cosmic Microwave Background observations on the reheating parameter that one can associate with the model parameter.
