How FOS User Bundle authenticates the user by this service container?

$this->container->get('security.context')->getToken()->getUser();

I want to manipulate the authentication process. Where should I look in the bundle?

Actually FOSUserBundle doesn't do authentication. It actually provides a db user provider. Authentication part is done by Symfony2's internal form_login authentication provider. If you want to create custom authentication provider check this cookbook entry.
