Reactive molecular collisions
Imagine if you will a chemical reaction between carbon monoxide and nitrous oxide:
CO + N2O → CO2 + N2
In the total energy terms "E", e,t,r, and v stand for electronic, translational, rotational, and vibrational.
After the reaction, the density of each of these states changes. That is the essence of molecular reaction dynamics.
