Apa nama token '\%' dan '\ @' di vim regex? Dan apa fungsinya?

Saat mengedit file sintaks, saya menemukan sesuatu seperti:

\s*\%(\%(:\@<!\/\/.*\)\=\|\%(\/\*.*\*\/\s*\)*\)$

Aku akrab dengan apapun selain \%dan \@di sana. Saya bahkan tidak bisa googling karena saya tidak tahu apa namanya. Jadi apa itu dan apa fungsinya?

Sebelum googling, coba dok:

Dari :h \%

\%(\)   A pattern enclosed by escaped parentheses.
    Just like \(\), but without counting it as a sub-expression.  This
    allows using more groups and it's a little bit faster.
    {not in Vi}

Dan :h \@<!

\@<!    Matches with zero width if the preceding atom does NOT match just
    before what follows.  Thus this matches if there is no position in the
    current or previous line where the atom matches such that it ends just
    before what follows.

    Like "(?<!pattern)" in Perl, but Vim allows non-fixed-width patterns.
    The match with the preceding atom is made to end just before the match
    with what follows, thus an atom that ends in ".*" will work.
    Warning: This can be slow (because many positions need to be checked
    for a match).  Use a limit if you can, see below.

    Example         matches ~

    \(foo\)\@<!bar      any "bar" that's not in "foobar"

    \(\/\/.*\)\@<!in    "in" which is not after "//"
