Seven observatories performed in 1968–2015 numerous daily measurements of general magnetic field of the Sun seen as a star (of a mean line-of-sight field component of the visible solar hemisphere). The new data 2013–2015 confirmed the recent prediction about saw-edged profile of the mean curve of the Hale’s 22 years magnetic cycle and, thus, a hypothesis about its cosmological (partial) origin. This is supported by a special analysis of epochs of extrema of Wolf’s sunspot number, demonstrating a remarkable stability, since Galileo’s time, of the initial phase of the cycle, which can hardly be explained by dynamo theory exclusively.
