Abstract: We present high-speed photometric observations of FS Aur taken with the 4.2m WHT and the high-speed camera ULTRACAM. These observations were intended to search for fluctuations on timescales 50-100 sec. We detected oscillations with a period of about 100 sec, seen repeatedly for a short time of every half of the orbital period. These oscillations support our hypothesis on the precession of the rapidly rotating white dwarf in FS Aur.
