Aug 9 at 9:27 comment added The Tiler If I understand something, the answer is already given M.S and I agree when he said: I would bet a sizable amount of money that such effects will not be detectable in my lifetime. the links I gave are for details.
Aug 9 at 9:09 comment added The Tiler (98,9)==> $\delta \varphi = k \omega _{0} \;\;$ They say (L.L) "in other words, a ray of light passing at distance $\rho$ from the center of the field deviates by $\delta \varphi $ 1 For a ray passing close to the Sun, $\delta \varphi $= 1.75”$
Aug 8 at 18:30 comment added Derek Seabrooke @TheTiler great find! What signifiance does this have to my question?

Feb 22, 2021 at 11:15 comment added Andrew Steane The optical terminology for the effect you are asking about is "chromatic aberration"; in the context of a lens this is the term for a wavelength-dependent focal length. Gravitational lenses have huge amounts of spherical aberration but no chromatic aberration in the geometric limit.
