PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nuclear transformation system and a nuclear transformation method capable of increasing the reaction amount of a nuclear transformation reaction. SOLUTION: The nuclear transformation system 30 includes: a structure body 21; a deuterium high pressure section 25 and a deuterium low pressure section 26; pressure increasing means 31; pressure decreasing means 27; first temperature regulation means 24 disposed near the structure body 21 on the deuterium low pressure section 26 side; and a to-be-transformed substance contact means for bringing a substance to be subjected to nuclear transformation to contact with a first surface of the structure body 21. The nuclear transformation method includes: a pressure increasing processing of increasing the deuterium pressure on the first surface side of the structure body 21; a pressure decreasing processing of decreasing the deuterium pressure on the other surface side of the structure body 21; a temperature gradient generating process of generating a temperature gradient by increasing the temperature of the structure body 21 to a temperature higher than the temperature of deuterium on the deuterium high pressure side; and a to-be-transformed substance contact processing of bringing the substance to be subjected to nuclear transformation to contact with the surface of the structure body 21 on the side in which the deuterium pressure is higher.
