When you say "Cartesian Join" you are basically speaking, like you said, of
a "Cartesian Product of two Matrixes". Each row joined to each row of each
Matrix. Cartesian Joins in Relational DBs are basically 2 or more tables
in query without a join condition so that each row in the first table is
joined to every row in the other table.
So basically "Cartesian Join" = "Cartesian Product"

I guess this has already been answered, but to clarify:
I believe "Cartesian" refers to a *product* ("Cartesian product"), not a
join.
