You should probably start here: http://lucene.apache.org/solr/4_0_0/tutorial.html
For indexing and analysis, i.e. how the text is transformed for indexing and searching (things like stemming, lowercasing etc.) that's all configured in schema.xml (you'll find that file in ...solr/example/solr/collection1/conf Another key file in that directory is solrconfig.xml, which defines how Solr does things like query parsing etc. So those are places to start. I'd recommend working through the tutorial and then coming back with specific questions. Also, the two Manning books "Solr in Action" and "Lucene in Action" will give you a lot of background.
