English term

cross-section (of returns)

English to French Bus/Financial Economics
This term appears in the description of a research project. It also appears in several books titles but I can't find its meaning in French. For the moment, I found "comportement des rendements" which matches one of the sentences, but not the others... Unfortunately, I'm not a specialist of this field... I would be very grateful if somebody can help me...Here are 2 sentences:

This paper investigates what explains the cross section of returns of firms.
The Capital asset pricing model (CAPM) fails to explain the cross section of asset returns.

Thanks !!
