Sidney, I'm taking the liberty to copy r-sig-geo in this.

the answer is in the C sources, I looked at
http://svn.52north.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/main/gstat/src/vario_fn.c?view=markup&root=geostatistics

copying the essential C snippets from the code:

1.0 - (pow(2.0, -(kappa - 1.0))/gammafn(kappa)) *
			pow(hr, kappa) * bessel_k(hr, kappa, 1.0);

> 7    Ste Mat (Matern, M. Stein's parameterization)

	bes = bessel_k(2.0 * sqrt(delta[1]) * h, delta[1], 1.0);
	if (!isfinite(bes))
		return 0.0;
	if (bes == 0.0)
		return 1.0;
	mult = pow(2.0, 1.0 - delta[1]) / gammafn(delta[1]) *
		pow((2.0 * sqrt(delta[1]) * h), delta[1]);
	if (!isfinite(mult))
		return 1.0;
	return 1.0 - bes * mult;

> 13   Hol                                Hol (hole)

	return 1.0 - sin(h/(*r))/(h/(*r));

> 16   Spl                              Spl (spline)

	return h * h * log(h);
(I'm not sure this is a legal model)

> 17   Leg                            Leg (Legendre)

	r2 = r[0] * r[0];
	ang = h / (PI * 6378.137);
	return 2.0 - (1.0 - r2)/(1 - 2.0 * r[0] * cos(ang) + r2);

These are all unit variogram models, and get multiplied by their partial
sill. r[0] is range, r[1] is kappa for the partial model defined in
vgm(). h is distance.

Good luck with your geostatistics course,
