Experimental processes that are sensitive to parton Wigner distributions provide a powerful tool to advance our understanding of proton structure. In this work, we compute gluon Wigner and Husimi distributions of protons within the Color Glass Condensate framework, which includes a spatially dependent McLerran-Venugopalan initial configuration and the explicit numerical solution of the JIMWLK equations. We determine the leading anisotropy of the Wigner and Husimi distributions as a function of the angle between impact parameter and transverse momentum. We study experimental signatures of these angular correlations at a proposed Electron Ion Collider by computing coherent diffractive dijet production cross sections in e+p collisions within the same framework. Specifically, we predict the elliptic modulation of the cross section as a function of the relative angle between nucleon recoil and dijet transverse momentum for a wide kinematical range. Here, we further predict its dependence on collision energy, which is dominated by the growth of the proton with decreasing x.
