Does "the new star" refer to "sun"?

Context:

Scientists believe our own sun did not form in the early days of the universe; our sun is instead a second- or third-generation star, formed about 5 billion years ago by a local recoalescence. As that was occurring, a small proportion of heavier elements in the vicinity escaped incorporation into the new star, and instead collected into the planets that now rotate around our sun.
