Recent interplanetary observations presented evidence of simultaneous excitation of high-frequency Langmuir waves and low-frequency electromagnetic whistler waves in the magnetic holes of the solar wind. In this letter, we formulate a broadband theory of the interplanetary Langmuir-whistler events. We show that whistler waves can grow exponentially as a result of nonlinear interactions of Langmuir waves and left-hand circularly polarized radio waves. In particular, the growth of whistler waves favors propagation parallel to the Langmuir waves.
