The best language reference is the semantics appendix to the programming 
guide.  It says:

-----
Reflective access to the join point

Three special variables are visible within bodies of advice: 
thisJoinPoint, thisJoinPointStaticPart, and 
thisEnclosingJoinPointStaticPart. Each is bound to an object that 
encapsulates some of the context of the advice's current or enclosing 
join point. [...]

See the runtime API javadoc for JoinPoint and JoinPoint.StaticPart.
