Well i'm not good in explaining, but my simple answer authentication is a process that's to check wheter a user has a permission or not to access resources whether the resources are some files, data, information, etc. The easiest example is when you try to login to this web site, than the web site will try to check whether you already registered or not, if not then the web site will try to ask you for sign in.
Windows Authentication is authentication based on the domain of your computer or network. Its use your windows user name and password when try to access some resources that can accept windows authentication type, for example MS SQL Server login, access webs from local computer, etc. You don't have try to login (fill the user name and password), Windows will do it for you automatically.
ASP .NET Authentication type is use forms base authentication, so a login form is needed, the example is the one that i already told you in the first paragraph.
I'm sorry i can not help you for URI reference, because most of informations i got are from books, internet is so expensive in my country.
But i can give you some simple example if you want to.
