Light rays are bent and brought by a refraction.
While the term light 'rays' is a 400 year old artifact and may give a misguided idea of what the visible part of the em wave spectrum is, the point at which the optical axis of a part of the incident plane of a light wave focused by a lens is called the FOCAL POINT of the lens. (It is not of course IN the lens).
A lens that forms images by refracting light rays together is called what?
The answer to this question depends solely on the angle at which the rays were bent. The convergence (and divergence) may be used to find the location relative to the bending point.
The light rays come together to make a bright spot of light. When a concave mirror is used in car headlights, a bulb is placed at the spot where light would come together. This has the effect of making the opposite happen. The rays of light shining out from the bulb are reflected off the concave mirror to make a strong beam of light, which travels out in front of the car to shine on the road.
The type of rays that come together are called convergent rays.

Rays that come from the sun are Ultraviolet rays (UV). You also get light rays and heat waves.
A real image can be captured on a screen (eg white paper) whereas a virtual image cannot.To see an image on a screen light rays must come to a focus on the screen, but with a virtual image no actual light rays come together at the location of the image .. hence a virtual image cannot be seen on a screen.A real image is a source of light energy .. rays of light radiate from it.A virtual image is not a source of light energy.. rays of light do not radiate from it ( although it's where the brain 'thinks' the light originated.)
When light rays come together, they converge.
After they pass through the lens, they converge, meaning that they come together at a specific point.
They are all different wavelengths of light (photons), the smaller the wavelength the higher the energy. Radio waves, microwaves are also light. ====================================================================== gamma and x-rays come from nuclear radiation (nuclear fission/fusion)... theoretically it is possible threw other means but we are not there yet.
Oblique rays that strike the object. Oblique rays strike the object being viewed, illuminating the object and reflect light rays up through the objective.
