Abstract: The experimental and theoretical studies of the electron screening effects in charged-particle induced reactions at energies of astrophysical interest are systematically reviewed, and the theoretical discussions on the electrostatic screening effects in the thermonuclear reactions in stellar plasma are also summarized briefly. This paper demonstrates that a deep understanding of the influences of astrophysical environment on the nuclear processes is one of the important topics in nuclear astrophysics.
