Sessionstate timeout and Forms Authenticatin timeout

Hi,

I'm a tad confused regarding the difference between an asp.net session and
an authentication session and their timeouts. Do the two types of session
exist independantly of one another? If so, what happens if one expires
before the other? Any info appreciated. PS. Using asp.net v2
