$_ is an alias for $psItem.

Github repository about-PowerShell, path: /language/variable/automatic/psItem/equivalency.ps1
In a pipeline, $_ refers to the object that is received from the last step in the pipeline.
In a catch block, $_ refers to the exception object (whose type is System.Management.Automation.ErrorRecord) that caused the catch block to be invoked.
In a switch statement, $_ is an alias for the object being tested.
