(2025-01-24 09:30:35) 李菂任清华大学天文系第二任系主任
2025年1月16日天文系系主任换届，通过民主推荐和考察，经学校研究决定，清华大学讲席教授李菂担任系主任
一职。原系主任毛淑德教授不再担任系主任。
毛淑德于2014年任清华大学任天体物理中心（天文系前身）主任，2019 年开始担任新成立的天文系首任系主任。
在任期间，积极引进国内外优秀青年师资，推动大科学项目发展，搭建国际化培养平台，搬迁新办公楼。毛淑德牵
头基金委创新群体、国家重点研发计划等多项科研项目，在本科生教学、研究生培养方面积极作为，培养了一批青
年人才，为天文系的早期发展做出了贡献。在交接工作中，毛淑德老师表示将不遗余力，继续关心支持天文系发
展。
李菂老师表示，感谢毛淑德老师的贡献，感谢学校及同事的信任和肯定，表示将竭尽全力投入工作，团结带领全系
教师不断开创事业发展新局面。 现在附上新任主任李菂对全系的寄语：
人类拥有同一片天空，每个人却有自己的宇宙。
从玉泉路到永定路就是我小时候宇宙膨胀的极限。中关村和清华大学那时只能是幼年宇宙学理论上的可能。即使这
样有限的宇宙，也有复杂的事物和难解的存在。所以成年以后，第一次看到开普勒的日记，虽然能看懂却大受震撼
。大意是他刚刚完成了三定律，猜测这样神圣而优美的见解估计还需要100年才能被世人接受：“十年或百年都无
关紧要。我找到了天堂的定律。”这是几乎荒废一生试图纯用正多面体构建宇宙学的开普勒，也是多次面临经费困
难、亲人夭亡的开普勒。他的定律还在被使用。其更深刻的影响是表明了天空存在法则，而法则可以被个人揭示，
被人类理解。
我们比开普勒幸运的多。我们有清华大学的支持。我们有李惕碚、陶嘉琳、毛淑德这些具备远见卓识的实干家。我
们有最优秀的学生。从2019年4月21日开始，我们还有了天文系这样一个家园，支撑对天堂的定律的探究。目前，
天文系有将近20位全职教师，主要从事高能天体物理、星系宇宙学、系外行星和射电天文4个方向。天文系的规模
在迅速扩大的中国天文领域中并不显著，也凸显了清华天文进一步发展需要强调系统原创、交叉学科的必要性。作
为原创和交叉的范例，宽视场巡天望远镜（MUST）和宇宙热重子探寻计划（HUBS）都进入了《清华大学2030创
新行动计划》，成为清华大学天文系的发展重心。
“博学之，审问之，慎思之，明辨之，笃行之。”天文系将依托前辈奠定的基础，践行学校内涵式发展的战略，尝
试开拓动态宇宙“时间前沿”等探索方向，揭示天空共同的法则，拓展每一个宇宙的边界。
Humanity shares the same sky, yet each person has their own
universe. From Yuquan Road to Yongding Road marked the limits of my
expanding universe during childhood.
Back then, places like Zhongguancun and
Tsinghua University were no more than theoretical
possibilities
within my adolescent cosmology. Even within
such a confined universe, there were already intricate
phe-
nomena and enigmatic existence. When I came
across Kepler’s diary for the first time, I was
profoundly
touched. He had just formulated his three laws
and suspected that such sacred and elegant insights
have to take another hundred years to be
widely accepted: “ten or a hundred years—time is
inconse-
quential. I have discovered the laws of
heaven.” This was the Kepler: who almost wasted a full
lifetime
trying to build a cosmology with regular
polyhedrons. This was the Kepler who endured numerous
fina-ncial hardships and the loss of loved ones.
His laws are still in use today. Even more profoundly, his
laws
demonstrate that the sky follows
rules—rules that can be discovered by individuals and understood
by
humanity.
We are far more fortunate than Kepler. We have
the support of Tsinghua University. We have visionary
and pragmatic pioneers, such as Li Tipei,
Tao Charling, and Mao Shude. We have the most
outstanding
students. And as of April 21, 2019, we have
a home, the Department of Astronomy, for exploring the
laws
of heaven. Currently, the department has
nearly 20 full-time faculties, focusing on four main
areas:
high-energy astrophysics, galaxies and
cosmology, exoplanets, and radio astronomy. Such a scale is
not
prominent in the rapidly expanding field of
astronomy in China. Tsinghua Astronomy has to
emphasize
systematic originality and
interdisciplinary research. Exemplifying this vision, the
MUltiplexed Survey
Telescope (MUST) and the Hot Universe
Baryon Surveyor (HUBS) have been included in
the《Tsinghua
University 2030 Innovation Action Plan》and
thus the key focal points for the department’s develop
ment.
“Study extensively, inquire earnestly, think
carefully, discern clearly, and act resolutely.” Building
on
the foundation laid by our predecessors, the
Department of Astronomy at Tsinghua University will
carry
forward the school’s strategy of intrinsic
growth, will explore new horizons such as the dynamic
universe’s “time frontier”, will strive to
reveal the common laws of the sky as well as to extend
the
boundaries of every individual
universe.
