The relevant source code is accessible in the django.contrib.auth package:

https://code.djangoproject.com/browser/django/trunk/django/contrib/auth/__init__.py

Some further details on how these functions work is given in the docs:

https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#how-to-log-a-user-in
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/topics/auth/#how-to-log-a-user-out
