A sticky spheres model to describe slow dynamics of a non-equilibrium system
is proposed. The dynamical slowing down is due to the presence of entropy
barriers. We present an exact mean field analysis of the model and demonstrate
that there is a non-equilibrium phase transition from an exponential cluster
size distribution to a powerlaw.
