N2 - We calculate the second virial coefficient of anyons whose wave function does not vanish at coincidence points. This kind of anyons appear naturally when one generalizes the hard-core boundary condition according to self-adjoint extension method in quantum mechanics, and also when anyons are treated field theoretically by applying renormalization procedure to nonrelativistic Chern-Simons field theory. For the anyons which do not satisfy hard-core boundary condition, it is argued that the other scale-invariant limit is more relevant in high-temperature limit where virial expansion is useful. Furthermore, the cusp existing at the bosonic point for hard-core anyons disappears in general; instead it is shown that a new cusp is generated at the fermionic point. A physical explanation is given.
