perldoc perlvar
[snip]
       $&      The string matched by the last successful pattern
               match (not counting any matches hidden within a
               BLOCK or eval() enclosed by the current BLOCK).
               (Mnemonic: like & in some editors.)  This variable
               is read-only and dynamically scoped to the current
               BLOCK.
