What is the difference between refraction and rarefaction?

Refraction occurs when a wave crosses a boundary from one medium to another. A wave entering from an angle will change direction

Rarefraction refers to the "bending of wavelengths around an edge"of an object. diffraction depends on the size of the object relative to the wavelength of the waves.
